Oshi no Ko Chapter 143 Spoilers: Do Aqua and Ruby Go Through With Their Notorious Scene?

Oshi no Ko chapter 143 is just around the corner! As per the leaks, chapter 143 will be titled Complete Affirmation Otaku. After Ruby tried to convince Aqua to practice the kissing scene with her, in the previous chapter, the upcoming installment will witness the aftermath of the scandalous situation. Though Aqua remains hesitant and tries to push Ruby away, Ruby remains insistent. Her passion to carry out the kiss is evident when she throws a tantrum.

Ruby asks Aqua to refer to her as Sarina-Chan and act as Doctor Gorou. However, Aqua, clearly uncomfortable with the idea, attempts to distract Ruby. He asks her to brush her teeth and go to bed but to no avail. Ruby’s insistence compels Aqua to cave in and fulfill her desire. He puts on his glasses and they enact the scene.

An elated Ruby asks the doctor to marry her and seeks his appreciation. Upon receiving the validation she needs from him, she feels ecstatic and reveals to Aqua that she used to love when Doctor Gorou visited her when she was Sarina.

Aqua then tries to get a hold of the situation when he realizes that his being Gorou in his past life did not change his current personality. He is now a much somber man compared to his former goofy self. Ruby reveals that she faced a similar situation, but having a favorite person, who she refers to as her Oshi, helped her through it.

Ruby expresses her gratitude to Aqua for being her Oshi and helping her find meaning and happiness in life. She also confesses that, as Sarina, the first man she fell for was Gorou. After claiming that she is Aqua’s all-affirming otaku, she kisses Aqua. The following day, they kiss each other in the film scene and the chapter ends there.

Oshi no Ko chapter 142 recap: Aqua and Ruby’s controversial kissing scene causes upheaval

Oshi no Ko chapter 142 was titled Responsibility. In the chapter, Aqua and Ruby’s kissing scene in the movie was the primary focus. Although Ruby seemed completely okay with the controversial situation, Kana, Miyako, and Mem-Cho expressed their discomfort with such an event that involved a brother and a sister kissing each other, even for the sake of a movie.

However, given Ruby’s obsession with her brother, it is no surprise that she readily wanted to kiss him. Moreover, the chapter takes readers to the moment when Aqua reached out to Yoriko and Abiko, the manga creators, to seek their advice. In the flashback, the chapter reveals that the two creators decided to upgrade the script to make it more appealing.

The chapter also unveils that it was mostly the manga creators’ plan and insistence to go on with the kissing scene involving Aqua and Ruby. Their steadfastness that the scene must be carried out properly was also unveiled.

Likewise, Ruby tried to convince her brother of the scene. She asked Aqua to imagine them in an alternate reality where she was Sarina, and Aqua was Gorou. However, this was not enough to persuade Aqua and he hesitated to carry out the scene. This was when Ruby suggested practicing the kissing scene before they had to film it in the movie.

The much-anticipated chapter 143 will reach the fandom on March 13th.
